"she"s:

Jamie Lokier (UK)
Kai Harrekilde-Petersen (Norway)
Kai Makisara (Finland)
Pat Mackinlay (Australia)
Pauline Middelink (Netherlands)
Kai Petzke (Germany)

some I really don't know

Matti Aarnio (Finland)
Arindam Banerji (USA)
Chih-Jen Chang (China)
Heiko Eissfeldt (Germany)
Niibe Yutaka (Japan)

and some which could be :-)

Terry Dawson (Australia, probably)
H.J. Lu (USA, probably)

Anyone can check off any male name?
